I have a box that has NVIDIA GeForce 6150/nForce 430 Onboard Video. When I install Ubuntu 12.10 Unity and then boot up I am eventually confronted with an error screen that that says my video cannot be detected properly and default video will be used ... but the xserver fails to start. I have attempted a new install 3 times. Twice I never made it to the desktop. I did once but video was really jagged and distorted.

I can run 12.10 off my installation dvd just fine.

Ubuntu 12.04 Unity runs just fine when installed on this box.

So, is there some sort of reasonable remedy for this situation that gets 12.10 running for me?
